I came across a post today on LinkedIn which mentions that PMI are offering a free PMP Practice Pilot Exam for a limited time for all members and non-members.
When I clicked on the link, it directed me to PMI store and going through the product details, it read as follows:
Product Description
From PMI, the makers of the PMP: This full-length practice exam is a simulation of the actual PMP® exam, with 200 questions taken from previous exams. This online resource will help you get comfortable with the types of questions and format of the exam. The practice exam is not timed and it provides candidates with feedback to aid the learning process when a questions is answered incorrectly. Also, users are permitted to retake the practice exam to continue to build confidence in sitting for the PM.
Appropriate Audience
This practice exam is being offered as a limited time pilot by PMI. It is available at no cost to PMP candidates in India who have paid their exam application fees. At this time the practice exam is not available to candidates outside of India and is not available for purchase.
That being said, it seems that the Practice Exam Pilot is available for everyone without any restrictions so either the note under the product is there by mistake or maybe PMI didn't restrict access for some reason. Something is off ! I will share link to PMI Store in the comments
Are you aware of this ? Let me know what you think ? Saving Changes...
Seems strange. Investigator Rami, do let us know the results.

I won't probably investigate. I posted the questions here to see if others are aware of this or not and maybe PMI can also enlighten us.
I did not want to announce it on LinkedIn before I make sure it is accessible to all.

Dear Rami,
Caricatured situation, I wonder if the current PMP's would be able to pass this exam, it would be a funny experience to test it anonymously. I wonder why India :)

Rami, I was not aware, but certainly, I am curious now. Are the 200 questions from previous exams those that have been taken out of circulation. I would assume so. What would the pilot hope to achieve and how they would measure success. If the question bank is in fact actual questions, it would definitely be a great resource for preparing for the exam

Under product description (See above in the original post), they mention that those questions are actual questions from previous.
While I am curious why they say it applies for candidates from India but it is in fact open for all, I am more curious about why now when the exam will be changing in the next few months ... Right ?

I suspect the pilot is, in fact, a preparatory step to this summer's new exam.
